What is this? Well, it's the original Imagineering plan for the Grand Californian Hotel! Is it me or does this look a lot more like what you'd find in Solvang?Don't get me wrong- I like the look. It's charming and so very different than anything else Disney Imagineering has done in the past. But it has a European flavor to it that doesn't capture the essence of California. The current Frank Lloyd Wright flair with its Craftsman focus is on target. Will we ever see another themed resort at Disneyland? My guess is not for many years.
